Episode 14 - And the mountain comes visiting Mohammed. Seyifunmi paused the movie airing. Her heart thanked Dele for fixing her up with a HD-PVR decoder. Her mind shunned it as she remembered how he'd asked her to leave him. She was always going to be second place with him. Temi and Tomini would always come first and she wasn't sure if she could stand that. He was first in her life and she expected the same from him. But time and time over he'd proved she was second fiddle. "Coming." She shouted as the door bell rang again. She sprinted to the door and opened it. Her heart sank as she saw who came visiting. She gulped and her palms grew sweaty. Her mother's frown and her immediate older sisters' smug looks made her want to melt in fear. If her mother had left Ibadan to come to Lagos, this was not going to be a good visit. "Se o o ni kuro l'ona ka wole?" Her mother said and pushed her out of the way and entered into the apartment.(Won't you leave the way, do we can't enter?) Sister Simi followed their mother humphing and Sister Liza gave her a weak smile as she entered. Sister Liza was the closest to Seyifunmi. She was the only one of her siblings she had a rapport with. Though they were twins, fraternal twins, they were as different as night and day. Where Sister Simi was dark, Sister Liza was fair. Where Sister Liza was average chested, Sister Simi had jugs the size of Russia. Where Sister Liza was understanding, Sister Simi was a cross between Hitler and Gadaffi. Sister Simi was their mum's favorite. Only God knew why. However with all their differences, they were thicker than thieves. Seyifunmi sighed and locked the door. She walked back to the living room and stood. "E kaasan ma," Seyifunmi greeted, genuflecting. Her mother grunted a response and Seyifunmi greeted her older sisters. "Should I get you something to drink?" Seyifunmi asked. "Water or juice?" "Did I tell you I came to Lagos for water or juice?" Her mother snarled. "Jo ko."(Sit down.) Seyifunmi sighed and sat opposite her mother. This was not going to be fun. She stifled a smile. "Look, I came here to talk sense to you. And I brought your sisters, so that they can talk to you. And so that they can be my witnesses. So that when people say why didn't you talk to your daughter, they will be there and say, 'Won so fun. Seyifunmi lo ko lati gboro.'" Her mother started. (She told her. It was Seyifunmi who refused to listen.) "To. Eyin mejeji, ke la eti yin, ke gbo." Her mother continued and placed the handbag sitting on her laps on the couch.(So. You two, open your ears and listen.) "In seven years, Seyifunmi, you will be forty and you don't think you have a problem? For four years, you and Dele have been traipsing around and it has not occurred to either of you that it is time to get married?" Her mother said and Seyifunmi resisted the urge to roll her eyes. "Shebi, bi iwaju o se lo, eyin se pada si. If Dele has no plans for the future, then leave him and find someone who is future-oriented."(If one can't go forward, then it's best to turn back.) "Me, I can't leave Dele o." Seyifunmi grumbled and crossed her arms over her chest in protest. That wasn't an option. Her mother sneered and pointed at her, "Ewo bi o se n soro bi ode. Se won ri obi e si eyinkule e?(Look how she's talking like a fool. Was your placenta buried in his backyard?) Seyifunmi's mouth turned acrid at the insult and her frown deepened. "So if he doesn't propose in ten years, you will be waiting like a fool?" Her mother asked and scoffed. "O je ya ara e ni brain, Seyifunmi."(Lend yourself some brain, Seyifunmi.) Seyifunmi mumbled under her breath and her mother scorned, "See this one. You think you're doing me? If you don't know, ile obinrin o kin pe su. Because your breasts are still standing,you think you are young abi it is the Mary Kay you people are rubbing that is deceiving you?" (A woman's beauty fades quickly.) Her mother's voice and gaze hardened. "Mo n so temi ni sin. If you think it is grandchildren that is hungrying me, think again. I have twenty one. I'm just telling you so that it will not be too late for you to have children."(I'm saying my piece now.) Her mother pursed lips and clasped her hands together as she stared away from Seyifunmi. "Seyifunmi, what exactly is going on with you and Dele? When you brought him to Adesua's wedding, he said you guys would be next. Was he just joking or what?" Sister Liza asked. And just as Seyifunmi opened her mouth to talk, Sister Simi eyed her and said, "If I know Seyifunmi, she has sent the man running with her irrational behavior." Seyifunmi glared at her and said, "I am not irrational." Her mother flung a throw pillow at her. "Gbe gbogbo enu e soun."(Shut your mouth.) Seyifunmi mumbled and tossed the pillow on the floor. Her mother stood and walked closer to her, "Wo, tin ba ko igbati fun e, wa gba pe Olorun o loga. You think I can't beat you? I will sit on your head and beat you. You just try me."(If I slap you, you will realize God has no boss.) "Mummy, it's okay." Sister Liza pleased. Seyifunmi shrank at her mother's words and knew better than to dare the woman. She could actually make good on her threat. Her mother hissed and returned to her seat. Seyifunmi thanked God for Sister Liza's presence. If it only Sister Simi, maybe she'd have stooled down like the old days after being beaten black and blue. Her mother huffed in anger, "Nonsense. I don't know what is making you so proud. Nobody can talk to you." "Is it because some people are calling you Oga?" Her mother shouted. "Let me tell you. Aponle o si f'obinrin ti o ba l'oko."(There's no regard for a woman with no husband.) Leave it to a Nigerian mother to make your successes seem like a failure. "I don't kukuma blame you. It's your father that spoilt you." Her mother continued. "Mummy, Dele and I are still together. We've just been going through a rough patch because of his ex-wife and daughter. That's what caused the delay." Seyifunmi said. "What happened?" Sister Liza asking and Seyifunmi relayed everything that happened during her last visit to Délé's place. "Ahh!" Her mother shouted. "Omo n ba j'oni, a ba yo. So he told you to leave and you too, you carry your tiny legs like matchsticks and left?"(It's a joyful thing if a child takes after you.) "Mummy, calm down. Don't raise your BP. You shouldn't be stressing yourself. It's not good for your health." Sister Simi cautioned. A pang of guilt bit Seyifunmi. It was a miracle that their mother recovered from her stroke with only a limp in her walk. The doctor had specifically warned them not to stress her. Seyifunmi wished she didn't have to put her mother in this situation. Seyifunmi's mother sighed as her voice cracked. Tears fell from her eyes and she sobbed, "Seyifunmi, so fe pami?"(Seyifunmi, do you want to kill me?) Sister Simi left her seat to go perch on the arm of her mother's seat. "Mummy, it's okay." Sister Liza and Sister Simi begged and Seyifunmi felt her eyes sting with tears. She hated seeing her mother cry. "All I want is for all of you to have a happy home. K'eni ibujoko ayo. I want all of you to be happily married, so that anytime God calls me home, I can rest peacefully, knowing all my girls are maritally settled. Why is Seyifunmi now making me seem like a monster?" Their mother howled in tears and Seyifunmi cried at the sight. "Mummy, you're not a monster." Sister Simi said, rubbing their mother's back. "Mummy, you're not." Sister Liza reiterated. Seyifunmi's mother wiped her tears and looked at her. "If you knew you couldn't stand sharing a man, why did you now agree to date a divorcee? Look, let me tell you something. A man who has children with a woman is forever linked to that woman by those children. This Tinu lady gave Dele his first born. No how, no how, he will have some form of attachment towards her. But that doesn't mean he doesn't love you. Seyifunmi, this boy is a good boy. If you push him away with your jealousy, you will regret it and I will hands off your matter." 8 Likes |

genius43: A nice advice from the mother, Seyi should just have some sense and reason that this Tinu has given Dele kids. Twins for that matter, she should just understand that and find a way to let the relationship works out by loving what Dele loves which is the children. Anyway I still want Dele and Seyifunmi together despite all atrocities, Seyi should just apologize to the kids.. Though children can be so annoying sometimes so hard to deal with, if she can buy gifts for the children and play with them they'll forget about all what happens and move on.. Millie dear, you're bursting my brain with your write up I'm glued to my phone all days awaiting your updates.. Anyway more data to your phone dear. #Dele&Seyifunmi 2 Likes |

Episode 15 - And first position goes to…. Dele walked towards the balcony where he met his mother's husband sitting reading a newspaper. He bent in a half prostration and greeted the elderly man. The man turned and smiled at him. "Ha, Bamidele. Welcome." The man greeted and closed the newspaper in his hands and folded it. Dele smiled back and took a seat beside him. "Bawo ni? How's work?" The man asked and turned to face him. Dele shrugged and said, "All's well. How are you and mummy and Robert? It's been a while since I last saw that guy." Donald chuckled and said, "Reggie has a case of food poisoning. She's been stooling, so Tinu took her to the hospital. Elsa went with her. So, Motunde and Robert are watching the kids." "Oh. I hope it's nothing serious." He said. He knew just how much Reggie mattered to Tinu. He couldn't imagine just how frazzled Tinu would be now. No wonder she hadn't been picking his calls. He had wanted to come apologise for Seyifunmi's behavior. "It's a little but it's under control now." Donald said. "Anyway, I wanted to ask you something." "What sir?" Dele asked. "What exactly went down between you, Seyifunmi and Tinu on Sunday?" The man asked and leaned his head on his upright arm. Délé's mouth opened. Did Tinu come home to report to them? "Tinu didn't tell us what happened, if that's what you are thinking. Tomini came to me and your mum. She said her mother wanted to take away your visiting rights because of Seyifunmi and that she didn't want her to and that we should beg her." Donald said. Dele sighed and smiled weakly at his daughter's acts. He had always thought winning Tomini's love would be impossible but somehow, maybe by divine orchestration, Tomini loved him and Seyifunmi was going to ruin it. He explained everything to the man. He decided explaining the situation would help if Tinu chose to make good on her threat. He was tired of having that threat hanging over his head. "Wow!" The man said. "Are you sure Seyifunmi's action is not propelled by jealousy?" He scrunched his face in doubt. Seyifunmi? Jealous? "Of what? The kids?" That was ludicrous. "Them and Tinu." The man supplied. Dele chuckled and shook his head. "Seyifunmi? Jealous of Tinu? Because of what?" Donald smiled. A smile that meant you are naive. "Seyifunmi has no reason to be jealous of Tinu-" "Had." Donald corrected. "Before, Tinu was married and you were single. Now, you both are single due to the unfortunate passing of Chris. You are friends and co-executors of Chris's will. And being candid, Tinu's easy on the eyes. Any woman would be jealous." Dele shook his head. "Not Seyifunmi. She's knows how serious I am about her. We've talked about marriage and our future together. I mean, I've gotten a ring already. This is the woman I want to make my wife. If she feels jealous, then she should talk to me. Not lash out on my children." Donald pursed his lips. "Jealousy is usually irrational. Let's say she's not jealous of Tinu but of the children. From what I've gathered with my little knowledge of your relationship, correct me if I'm mistaken, Seyifunmi wants to come first with you but you place your children first." Donald put in. "Of course. Omo eni l'omo eni. Your child will never desert you. My father left my mother. I was all she had left. I'm not going to place a woman who storms out at the barest provocation above my children." Dele answered. (Your child is yours.) Dele frowned and continued, "I remember when Seyifunmi and I had an argument about her mum, she walked out on me. I gave her a few days to cool off and then I called her. Guess what. She'd blocked me from calling her. She deleted me as a friend and blocked me on her social media accounts. "She didn't reach out for close to six months. That wasn't a singular occurrence. Another time, we fought about something as trivial as a beggar I gave too much money who turned out to be a phony. She walked out again. Just the other week, we fought because I let food go to waste. Granted, I know I was at fault, but she stormed out again. She always leaves rather than stay and work things out. "Recently, I've been wondering if my love for her is enough reason to marry her. Maybe one day when we argue as a couple, the next day she'll slap me with divorce papers. It's infruriating and discouraging. When we argued on Sunday, I was pissed and told her to leave. I meant to leave me alone. The next minute, Seyifunmi was packing her bags and I haven't been able to get through to her. "I can't always be chasing after her with apologies. It's exhausting. I need her to be mature and stop acting like a petulant child. I don't know. Maybe it's because she's the last born in her family. I honestly don't know. If I place my children first, it's because Seyifunmi isn't worthy of being that esteemed. "And she knows how long I've waited for my children to love me just as much as they loved Chris. Why would she try to jeopardize our relationship?" Dele panted in soft gasps as he finished airing his mind. Donald sighed and said, "You have a point but what are you going to do? Are you going to dump her and look for an understanding woman?" Dele raised his brow. "Dele, do I need to remind you how old you are? Bi igi eleyi o da, a yo nu. Igi oun o da, a yo nu. Dakun, nigba wo l'ama s'ounje tan. Rather, than complain, have you tried talking to her? Communication is key in any relationship. Keeping your feelings bottled and making Seyifunmi second place will not help your relationship with her. Talk to her. Dele, I know you love that girl and I'm certain she loves you. She looks at you the same way your mother looks at me."(Proverb: If you keep complaining, when will you achieve what you want?) Dele chuckled and the man smiled. "Don't tell your mom I said that. But jokes apart, she loves you and she's stuck around for three years and counting. For what it's worth, she's ready for a commitment. I'm not saying you should go ahead and marry her. Don't get me wrong. If there are more warts, then maybe you should consider ending the relationship, rather than leading her on. She doesn't deserve it. But if it is only this issue that you've told me, then talk to her." Donald advised. Dele sighed and said, "Ese sir."(Thank you, sir) Donald waved it off, "It's nothing. You're a son to me. And-" The man was interrupted by Délé's ringtone. "Sorry sir. Excuse me." Dele said as he brought the phone out of his pocket. His pupils widened at the caller ID. Seyifunmi. "I'd take it's Seyifunmi calling." Donald said and Dele looked at him. The man smiled and got up. "I'll go and check on the children. I hope Chris has not turned Robert to a horse again." The man put in and shuffle out. Dele sighed and tapped the answer button. "Hello?" "Hello Dele. Hi." Seyifunmi's shaky voice said. "Um, I wanted to talk and I came to the house, but you're not in." "Yes. I went out." He heard her gulp and said, "When will you be back?" "I'm not sure. Maybe in three hours or more. I don't know. Do you want to talk over the phone? I don't want to keep you waiting." "I'll wait." She put in. "Just take your time. I'll wait." He shrugged and said, "Okay. I'll see you later." ****** (Insecure by Sauti Sol.) Seyifunmi wringed her hands as she heard the door open. She hoped her apology and the peace offering dinner she made would appease him. He smoothed out a crink on a napkin and walked towards the door. "Hey." She greeted with her voice shaky. "Hey." He answered and walked towards her. His eyes widened for two seconds as he took in the dining table and then they remained passive. "I made Amala, Ewedu and pork stew." She announced. People said the way to a man's heart was through his stomach. She didn't believe it but she needed all the help she could get. "Oh. I'm sorry. I didn't know you'd be making dinner. I already ate. I thought you'd be gone already. I texted you that I was stuck in traffic." Dele said. "I know. I felt you'd be hungry." She answered. Dele sighed and said, "What do you want to talk about?" A tear slipped out of her eye and she wheezed, "Dele, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for insulting Tomini and for saying things that could put your relationship with your children at risk. I'm really sorry. I know I f*ucked up big time but I'm sorry." His face softened and he asked, "Why?" She choked on a sob. How would she tell him that she was going insane with jealousy? How would she tell him that she was going mad waiting for his proposal? "I'm sorry." She pleaded. "Why did you do it?" Dele asked as he neared her trembling frame. "I don't have a good reason or a tangible explanation. I don't know what came over me. I just want you to forget me." Seyifunmi cried. Dele sighed. "Seyifunmi, I need you to tell me that bad reason and that intangible explanation. I'm ready to talk now. I want to understand what I did wrong that made you lash out on Tomini, so it won't repeat itself. Seyifunmi, please, I can't have the woman I love and my daughter playing Iran and Iraq. Tell me why you made that comment." Seyifunmi sobbed and said, "I'm sorry." He groaned and yelled, "Tell me the reason. Please. I need to know why." "Because I'm scared." She shouted back. "I'm scared you'll leave me, Dele. I'm scared you'll dump me and never look back." Dele placed his hands on her arms. "Why will you think that?" "Dele, I'm not young anymore. Soon, I won't be attractive anymore and I'm scared you'll grow tired of me." She lied. If she told him of her anxiety at waiting for his proposal, he might just propose out of sheer pity or guilt and she didn't want that. If she told him of her jealousy, he'd get angry that she mistrusted him. And it wasn't him she mistrusted, it was a certain widow who strutted around braless around another woman's man. Why was she so insecure? She was the one Dele came home to every night. Except the nights he was working with Toni. A voice said in her head. "Seyifunmi, answer me!" Dele shouted and shook her out of her thoughts. "I'm sorry. I was just listening to LTS the other day and a girl said-" "I am not that girl's boyfriend. I am yours. Seyifunmi, please don't measure our relationship with the yardstick of others. Please." Dele begged and she nodded. "I'm sorry." She said and hugged him. "Dele, I'm sorry. I'll apologise to Tinu and Tomini. I'll make this work." His hand palmed her head. "Thank you and I forgive you." ****** Tomini ran to her room when she saw the person at the door. She didn't want to face the wicked witch. Only God knew what she wanted. She steeled her back. This was her house, her turf. If the wicked witch tried anything, she'd give her an Osoto Gari and show her her Nikyu(blue belt) wasn't for decoration. Maybe she'd get grounded but she'd have the satisfaction of showing the lady who was boss. Her lips spread into a smile as she imagined Aunty Seyifunmi on her back crying and writhing in pain. Too bad her new school didn't have judo. Her mum promised to find her a dojo .She sighed as she flopped on her bed as Dapo came to her mind. She missed her best friend. When she called him to tell him she was moving to a new school, he was disheartened. She missed him. She hoped she'd be able to make new friends who were as good as Dapo. She picked up her jotter and started reading the lyrics of the song they were going to sing Grandma on her birthday. If she forgot another word, Temi would flip. She heard a knock and looked up. She met her mum standing by the door. "Baby, there's someone here to see you." Her mother called. "If it's wickedy witch, tell her to go away. If not I'll pluck out her eyes." She said and continued reading. "I thought I told you to stop calling her that." Her mother said and walked in to sit beside her on the bed. Tomini dropped her book and looked down at her hands. "Tomini, she's here to apologise. At least hear what she wants to say. And besides, I told you to apologise to her for being surly and naughty. This way you kill two birds with one stone." Her mother said and carressed her head. The girl looked up at her and said, "Mummy, she's evil and pretending. She wants to take Daddy away from us. That's her plan. Once she married Daddy, he won't love us again. Can't you see? She only wants us to believe she's nice but she isn't." "Tomini," Her mother drawled in exasperation. "Mummy, I'm eight now. I'm not stupid. If Daddy marries her, they'll have their own children and he won't have time for us anymore. And it will like when Daddy died all over again." Tomini said crying. "We'll be alone. And I don't want us to be alone." Tomini sobbed and her mother hugged her. "Tomini, your Daddy will never abandon you-" "You don't know that!" Tomini cried. Tinu pulled her away and said, "Look at me," the girl slowly raised her head, "if your Daddy wanted to abandon you, he'd have done it when I was in the hospital. But he didn't, because he loves you." "But what if she casts a spell on him? And-" "You used to like Aunty Seyifunmi before!" Tinu sighed. "That was before." Tomini sniveled. "Tomini, do you trust me?" Her mother asked and she nodded. "Nothing will take your father away from you. I promise you." Tomini nodded and hugged her mother. "Thank you, Mummy." "That's okay. Now, go and meet Aunty Seyifunmi and be nice to her." 9 Likes |

Jealousy has a way of raising our guard albeit un-necessarily and makes us forget why we fell in love or embarked on a project in the first place. Seyi be careful because 'good men somehow are scare' (ye who hit me, na watin I hear). Thanks Millie for the updates as events unfolds. It good to be here. 3 Likes |

Episode 16 - Trouble in paradise. Timi slapped his friend on the back as he rounded the table to take a seat. Dele exchanged greetings with his friend, grateful his friend had finally finished his rounds. His thoughts had almost killed him. The worst thing had happened to him. The worst, most embarrassing thing that could ever happen to any man happened to him. He'd never forget that day for as long as he lived. "So, what brings you here?" Timi said. "I'm sure the mighty CEO couldn't have left work on a Monday afternoon to come and gist." Dele perched on the edge of his sofa and frowned. "Timi, I'll go straight to the point. I think something is wrong with my…" He said and looked down at his crotch. "Your what?!" Timi asked with his brows furrowed in confusion. "My…" Dele said and looked down. "Your what?" Timi said smiling. "My d*ick, you slowpoke." Dele gritted and Timi burst into laughter. "It's not funny." Dele shouted. "So you couldn't say the word d*ick? You act like a nun during Lent." Timi said and sat up in his chair. "Just shut up and tell me what to do. I'm about to propose marriage and my d*ick goes AWOL?" "Sounds like your village people's work to me." Timi joked. "Shut up and give me something to use!" Dele scolded. "What exactly happened? I can't just prescribe drugs or a treatment without knowing the full details." Timi said dropping all drollery and putting on his concerned physician look. "I've been having trouble getting in the mood for a couple of days because of a severe headache I've been nursing. Finally, I got in the mood and Seyifunmi and I were making out. I had an erection then. And as we were about to make love, it disappeared. Gone. Just like that and I couldn't get it up again. And for two days now, there's been no show." Dele explained. Timi sighed and said, "Has it ever happened before?" "No. Never." Dele cried as Timi opened Délé's file to check the nurses' report from Délé's preliminary medical examination. Seyifunmi had been understanding and shrugged it off, saying it happened. But it didn't happen. Not to him. Those five minutes were the most embarrassing of his life. "Your blood pressure is a bit on the low side." Timi mused as he went through the report. "And your urine sample unusually dark." "Timi, am I okay?" Dele asked in fear. Was he down with something serious enough to affect his libido? Timi looked and said, "Are you thirsty right now?" Dele shrugged and nodded. Timi closed the file. "Nothing's wrong with you. You're dehydrated is all." "Phew." Dele sighed. "Dele, it's not to be taken lightly. You need your eight glasses a day. Dehydration could lead to hypertension, heart disease and kidney infection. And with your dropping blood pressure, you could go into shock if it becomes chronic. It's already causing Erectile Dysfunction in you." Timi warned frowned. "I have ED?" Dele cried in shock. "Temporary ED. Research had shown some cases of dehydration in men causes ED. Dehydration affects how much oxygen is delivered to penile tissue and releases a hormone that restricts blood flow to the penis. Thus, causing no erection or one to fail." Timi explained. "Is there a drug I can take then?" Dele said. "Yes." Timi quipped and pursed his lips. "It's called H2O. It's sold in bottles and sachets." Dele hissed. "Be serious." "I'm serious. You have to hydrate your body. Drink more water and fluids. Water preferably. Or if you can get coconut water. It hydrates faster than regular water." "Then how soon does my penis begin working again?" Dele asked. Timi shrugged and said, "As soon as your body is hydrated." Dele sighed and said, "Thank you." "No problem." ******* Seyifunmi placed a lingering kiss on Délé's lips as she leaned in closer to him. She straddled him on the bed and placed kisses on his neck. She heard him groan and she smiled and licked a trail on his neck. For the first time in the four years she'd been with Dele, he lost an erection. It was the most humiliating thing that had ever happened to her. Once, while a freshman in college and desperate to lose her V-card , she'd approached a sophomore to help her. She'd never forget the jerk. J.J. He was an international student just like her and an African too. She thought for some reason, he'd be nice about it. The guy had lost his erection just as he was about to penetrate and claimed she was the cause. He said the erection wasn't hers anyway. He had been thinking about some other girl because she was too unattractive to give him one and she was too unattractive to sustain it hence the deflation. She had never felt more ugly in her entire life. She hadn't been confident to date any guy or sleep with anyone until she was twenty-five, seven years after. When Dele's erection had gone down, she couldn't help but feel like an Ugly Betty again. At first, she thought it was his headache again but for three days now, Dele made no attempt to touch her. And she couldn't help but wonder she was actually unattractive to him. She lowered her hips, searching for the familiar hardness that would be in his crotch right about now. Her core was aching for some friction and it found nothing. She masked her disappointment and hurt and kissed his lips again. Dele remained passive. His hands would have been roaming her body but he just placed them lightly on her waist. "Shay, I'm sorry but I'm not feeling the mood. Let's just go to bed." Dele said as he pulled away. Her heart broke. "Um, sure. Okay." She whispered and rolled off him. "Goodnight, my love." Dele said and kissed her cheek. He turned on his side with his back facing her. God! She was losing her sex appeal. ****** Dele chugged on the bottle of water and screw the cap back in anger. This water thing wasn't working. It was already a week and his erection wasn't back yet. He felt less of a man every time he turned his back on Seyifunmi as they slept after telling her he wasn't in the mood. He'd have to go for a follow up with Timi. This thing was more than just dehydration. He needed pills. Something that would bring back his action. Maybe he'd just go and buy Viagra. The thought of him buying Viagra left a nasty taste in his mouth. He wasn't even fifty yet. "What did that bottle of water do to you?" Tinu jived as she held out a file to him. He shook his head and collected the file. "Doctor said I'm dehydrated." He grunted and flipped open the file. "Have you tried coconut water?" Tinu asked as sat opposite him at the dining table. His frown vanished and he looked at her. Timi had mentioned it too. "Timi said to try it but I didn't pay much thought to it." "I used it for Reggie when she was recovering. I think I still have a couple of bottles left. You can have it, if you want." She offered and put on her glasses. "Yes please." He said. Maybe this was his solution. "Okay, then." She hollered for Temi. The boy came and she asked him to bring the three bottles of coconut water left in the kitchen. "I have this customer near the hotel in Badagry. She set up her own plant. She produces coconut water, coconut milk and coconut oil. She recently even got her SON approval along with her NAFDAC number." Tinu informed him. "Then maybe when we go to Badagry on Saturday, you'll take me to her plant so I can buy a couple of cases. Tinu shrugged and said, "No wahala. Oh and by the way, I'll drop off the keys to your place on Saturday. The boys should be through with the guestrooms by Friday." Dele smiled. Finally. He could propose as soon as the house was done. "Thank you, Iyabeji Interior Decorations." Dele jived. She scrunched up her nose and frowned. "My business name is Tris Interiors. Ogbeni, respect yourself. Besides, I've told you to stop calling Iyabeji. Iyabeji is meant for old, fat women. Me, I'm a babe." Dele howled in laughter. "Babe ko, babe ni. Iyabeji is what I will be calling you. If you like don't answer." 6 Likes |

Iyaibeji (aka Tinu), does not show she's attached to Dele (like she never loved him, hence is not affected that he wants to marry someone else) despite how he made sure he was available through the mental ordeal. Dele quickly find your 'mojo' or forget/hold off the proposal because Seyi may think its her fault. Thanks Millie for the update. 1 Like |
